Poor Impulse Control

I took advantage of the tax-free weekend by picking up a couple pairs of pants and some shirts at Cabela’s. They told me during checkout that they could hem the pants for me while I waited. Usually I end up taking them to a local tailor, but that often takes a week and costs extra. However, I didn’t want to wait around on Sunday (amidst the crowd), so I went back this afternoon to have them done. I had about 30 minutes to kill while I was waiting, so I ended up wandering about the store.
In my wanderings I found myself at the knife counter. I’m not usually much of a knife person, but something about this one just called my name as soon as I saw it:
It ended up jumping out of the display case and coming home with me.
I really need to work on this whole impulse control thing…

Cabela’s can be dangerous that way. On my first trip in, a Savage Model 5 .22 rifle followed me home, and a Mosin Nagant 91/59 damn near did also.
Ain’t it great!?!
Nice looking Gerber knife! What is its model nr?
Can’t find it at either the Cabela or Gerber site.
Thanks!

It’s a Freeman S30V. Finding it on the website is kind of difficult, since it’s listed under fixed blade knives, even though it’s a folder. I think this is because the rest of the knives in the S30V family are all fixed blade.
Anyhow, here’s a link to it on the website.
